Hyper Activity among the elderly

Kadizzle's dear wife has always struggled with hyper activity. Fortunately Kadizzle has not had the affliction. Kadizzle can sit all day and watch paint dry, but Jasper Littlebottom has fire in the undies and has to get going. Today Littlebottom wants to hike up Signal Peak in Kofa National Wildlife refuge.

So as poor old Lord Kadizzle tried to awaken properly Littlebottom kept urging him to get out of bed. Because of sinus problems Kadizzle must get up slowly in five stages. Sinus draining means the head can only be raised about two inches at a time in the morning.

Once on the trail Littlebottom will be like a hunting dog fresh out of the kennel. She will be blasting down the trail at light speed as old diesel Kadizzle tries to get enough air to the engine to keep moving.

Now for the scary news. The rattlesnakes around here do not hibernate, so they will be out if it is warm. Last year not to far from here Kadizzle had his closest encounter with one. Kadizzle crawled down between two large boulders to join the company of a rattler waiting to taste his tender cheeseburger meat.
